As for an introduction, I've been interested in wildlife ever since I was a small child. My mom used to be a traveling nurse so I basically got to grow up exploring various different states, cultures, and of course seeing tons of cool wildlife! My favorite places I've ever lived were California, Hawaii, Nevada and New Mexico (and hopefully, we're moving back out there next Summer! Fingers crossed). I'm currently a 20 year old gal living in Wisconsin with my parents. They're not as gung-ho about Herping as I am, but they really enjoy getting outdoors with me and exploring which is nice.
Although I never manage to find a big variety of species, I'm working on finding different areas to explore so hopefully I'm able to find some cool things before I move next year (mostly hoping for a C. horridus, which is one of my favorite rattlesnake species)
Anyways, now for some pictures! A few things were taken with a Nikon Coolpix L810 but after it finally kicked the bucket my dad surprised me with my very first DSLR, a Nikon D3400 with two kit lenses (18-55mm and 70-300mm). Hopefully before next year I can save up and get a nice Macro lens (I'm eyeing the AF-S VR Micro-Nikkor 105mm F/2.8G IF-ED)















This guys symmetrical markings are really pleasing to my OCD brain


And now, for some non-herp critters:










I hope you guys enjoyed my pictures! I'm always looking out for new tips and tricks so don't be afraid to tell me what I'm doing wrong
